Thesis Description:

Develop systems thinking based methods/tool support to

• Document and manage systems/assets together with their key characteristics (asset life cycle management)
• Provide access to analysis tools/methods, e.g. scenario simulations as “what if we build new factory/power plant/part of city” in support of decision making (decision intelligence)
• Integrate and facilitate efficient and effective planning, also “generation” of required “nätutvecklingsplan”1 and the alike.
• Exemplify/illustrate with (typical) “nätutvecklingsplan” with integrated e.g. district heating. Exemplify e.g. storage/flexibility capability, scenario exploration, asset life cycle management
• Options: AI/ML integration (“digital twin” with real time data measurements/learning…)

Scope:
